TAYLOR SWIFT

Some may associate 13 with misfortune, but Taylor Swift says the number has
brought her lots of luck. The country superstar, who paints the prime number
on her hand before concerts, told MTV News that she saw her first album go
gold in 13 weeks, has a 13-second introduction to her first No. 1 song; and
even celebrated her 13th birthday on Friday the 13th. Her birthday? Dec. 13!
